New UFO Sighting Over North Carolina
Den of Geek ^ | 04/05/2018

Posted on 04/06/2018 6:03:03 PM PDT by BenLurkin

What is being described as a huge UFO mothership was caught on film in North Carolina, according to the Charlotte Observer.  An unnamed camerama caught the object hovering over rural fields close to Columbus, 85 miles west of Charlotte in Polk County, in the night sky.

The black and white video was filmed on April 3 and runs nearly five minutes. The YouTube footage released by The UFO Institute shows a v-shaped craft lit by six hovering lights, accompanied by a humming sound and the voice of the cameraman pondering “what the heck those lights are.”

"Whatever it is, it seems to be dropping," the cameraman says. Conspiracy theorists proffered the idea that the lights belong to a top-secret, experimental anti-gravity military vessel called the TR-3B, which could be based at the Fort Bragg or Pope Air Force bases. The craft has never officially been acknowledged.

...

North Carolina is one of the top ten states in America for UFO sightings. The National UFO Reporting Center lists 2,822 UFO sightings in North Carolina since the 1940s. California has had 13,199 sightings followed by Florida (6,252) and Washington (5,711). New York reported 4,558. The sightings in the database range from the 1950s to 2015.

...

The first sightings went on record in 1945 in Winston-Salem. The most recent was in January in Greensboro, when commuters reported “lights streaking across the sky zooming down to the Earth" for about 10 minutes around 8:45 p.m.  The witnesses "also saw aircraft all over as if they were looking for something."

Y’all’s humor is rich. Thanks for a great belly-laugh!

After all, there is not much intelligent conversation to be had about this topic :-)

Sounds like a good county for seeing UFOs. Not much light pollution, and near the mountains.

It’s no UFO, either. And besides, who knows what color that light really is. Whether or not it’s read, I obviously can’t say, but the chance that it’s the same color that we’re seeing in the video is practically nil.

It is definitely a UFO, "Unidentified Flying Object." None of us here knows what it is. The color balance may be off in the camera, but that top light is not red.

A cereal box painted black with pin holes and a flash light inside?

Good on you!

Tonopah was a trip. 80’s style. Mizpah and Station House.

That was it.
